the phone rings and somebody says,
"hey, they made a movie about
Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."

That's a shame, Sarge, I would've thought you really wouldn't have enjoyed it anyway.

I am, however, listening to another composer I don't enjoy (Messiaen) thereby fulfilling the conditions for Masochistic Monday Music Listening

I wonder how it compares to Solti-Presto, or the new release Harnoncourt-Scherzo?

Knappertsbusch Prestissimo possibile beats them all. It is reported that some members of the orchestra fell asleep during the recording.

Not sure if I am listening to this or not.  I think I am.



I have left my IPod at home and the speakers on the Works Computers are bust so I am listening to one humming printer, and one printer clicking over processing over and over.  Sometimes the door opens and the air con kicks in.  The toner vacuum pump kicks into life feeding the printers with their gasoline...and people chit chat beyond the door.

Somebody just walks in slurping a coca cola but its in a GREEN can.....that threw me way off kilter...coca cola LIFE, apparantly...low calorie.

Amazing what you can't hear when life is too loud.

Enjoyed the last 4 and a half minutes or so....going to spin it and try and not listen to it again.
